Do we care for manpage links in elements?</span></a></span> </h1> <p class="darkgray font13"> <span class="sender pipe"><a href="/search?l=freebsd-doc@freebsd.org&q=from:%22Giorgos+Keramidas%22" rel="nofollow"><span itemprop="author" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/Person"><span itemprop="name">Giorgos Keramidas</span></span></a></span> <span class="date"><a href="/search?l=freebsd-doc@freebsd.org&q=date:20130226" rel="nofollow">Tue, 26 Feb 2013 04:49:49 -0800</a></span> </p> </div> <div itemprop="articleBody" class="msgBody"> <!--X-Body-of-Message--> <pre>Hi everyone, I just noticed that in all the places where a chapter <title> includes a &an.xxx.section; entity the rendering in HTML output sucks a bit. Note how there are two separate links in the 'Using rc(8) Under FreeBSD' title in the following screenshot:</pre><pre> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://people.freebsd.org/~keramida/rc8-title-link.png">http://people.freebsd.org/~keramida/rc8-title-link.png</a> The <title> itself becomes an <a>...</a> element, but when a &man.xxx.y; macro is included in the title, the final rendering becomes: <a link="foo"> some text <a href="manpage link">manpage name</a> maybe more text </a> The embedded <a> terminates the first link, and the first </a> terminates the second link, so we end up with the broken rendering pf the screenshot and two _different_ links in the same sentence. Is there any way to automatically detect this and translate the embedded <a> element that &man.xxx.y; generates to something harmless, like <span>? If not, do we really care for &man.xxx.y; in titles, or should we just replace them with plain text? </pre> <p><strong><a href="msg00032/signature.asc" ><img src="../attachment.png" alt="Attachment:" width=27 height=28></a> <a href="msg00032/signature.asc" >signature.asc</a></strong><br> <em>Description:</em> Digital signature</p> </div> <div class="msgButtons margintopdouble"> <ul class="overflow"> <li class="msgButtonItems"><a class="button buttonleft " accesskey="p" href="msg00030.html">Previous message</a></li> <li class="msgButtonItems textaligncenter"><a class="button" accesskey="c" href="index.html#00032">View by thread</a></li> <li class="msgButtonItems textaligncenter"><a class="button" accesskey="i" href="maillist.html#00032">View by date</a></li> <li class="msgButtonItems textalignright"><a class="button buttonright " accesskey="n" href="msg00033.html">Next message</a></li> </ul> </div> <a name="tslice"></a> <div class="tSliceList margintopdouble"> <ul class="icons monospace"> <li class="icons-email tSliceCur"><span class="subject">Do we care for manpage links in <title> elements?</span> <span class="sender italic">Giorgos Keramidas</span></li> <li><ul> <li class="icons-email"><span class="subject"><a href="msg00033.html">Re: Do we care for manpage links in <title> e...</a></span> <span class="sender italic">Giorgos Keramidas</span></li> <li><ul> <li class="icons-email"><span class="subject"><a href="msg00035.html">Re: Do we care for manpage links in <title&g...</a></span> <span class="sender italic">Tom Rhodes</span></li> <li><ul> <li class="icons-email"><span class="subject"><a href="msg00036.html">Re: Do we care for manpage links in <tit...</a></span> <span class="sender italic">Giorgos Keramidas</span></li> <li><ul> <li class="icons-email"><span class="subject"><a href="msg00037.html">Re: Do we care for manpage links in <...</a></span> <span class="sender italic">Warren Block</span></li> <li><ul> <li class="icons-email"><span class="subject"><a href="msg00038.html">Re: Do we care for manpage links i...</a></span> <span class="sender italic">Giorgos Keramidas</span></li> </ul></li> </ul></li> </ul></li> </ul></li> <li class="icons-email"><span class="subject"><a href="msg00034.html">Re: Do we care for manpage links in <title> e...</a></span> <span class="sender italic">Benjamin Kaduk</span></li> </ul> </ul> </div> <div class="overflow msgActions margintopdouble"> <div class="msgReply" > <h2> Reply via email to </h2> <form method="POST" action="/mailto.php"> <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Do we care for manpage links in <title> elements?"> <input type="hidden" name="msgid" value="20130226124932.GA7258@saturn"> <input type="hidden" name="relpath" value="freebsd-doc@freebsd.org/msg00032.html"> <input type="submit" value=" Giorgos Keramidas "> </form> </div> </div> </div> <div class="aside" role="complementary"> <div class="logo"> <a href="/"><img src="/logo.png" width=247 height=88 alt="The Mail Archive"></a> </div> <form class="overflow" action="/search" method="get"> <input type="hidden" name="l" value="freebsd-doc@freebsd.org"> <label class="hidden" for="q">Search the site</label> <input class="submittext" type="text" id="q" name="q" placeholder="Search freebsd-doc"> <input class="submitbutton" name="submit" type="image" src="/submit.png" alt="Submit"> </form> <div class="nav margintop" id="nav" role="navigation"> <ul class="icons font16"> <li class="icons-home"><a href="/">The Mail Archive home</a></li> <li class="icons-list"><a href="/freebsd-doc@freebsd.org/">freebsd-doc -
